@WhamBaamX This is why you need to show down and use rear fog lights, madness that they aren't required in the US

Tesla Cyberrtuck Destroyed in ZERO Visibility Crash

@teslaeurope UK next?

Come experience FSD Supervised on your local roads!   Ride along in the passenger seat to experience how it handles real-world traffic & the most stressful parts of daily driving, making the roads safer for all Available now in Italy, France & Germany – more coming soon

@eivissacopter Strange that the Model S Plaid can't tow as every example that came to the UK from Europe had the tow package fitted as standard for 1600kg. It's also a shame it's not 1850kg as that would allow a lot more trailers and caravans given 0.85 ratio from 2183kg curb weight.

My 2ct in regards to the S/X 2026 launch in 🇪🇺 ▶️Contrary to some reports I don't see any technical changes to the 3D1/3D8/5D1 DU rotors. ▶️Model S Plaid can't have a tow hitch (I warned about this recently). ▶️👉Model S LR can tow 1600kg!👈 This will likely come as SEC retrofit.

I was really impressed with this fully electric 3 phase barn conversion AirBNB in rural France that even has fibre internet until I saw the random choc block connector coming out of the bathroom wall into the kitchen that was live @ArtElectrics. I still find bathroom sockets odd!

@MikeRadio @TeslaSoftUpdate Use the usb drive in the glovebox to get all the clips and camera angles, and much better quality than via the phone. I remove the drive weekly for the dashcam events. If you don't pay for the premium connectivity it's the only way to get the clips anyway.

@TeslaSoftUpdate I am glad that all cameras are now being able to be seen by century mode. But how come in the Tesla app with the clip view where you can only see four cameras and still can’t see all six which means you can’t save the other two.

@WhamBaamX @falgantil In which case the only way is to remove the trim by the passenger door and manually release it that way, it'll vary on which model and age of car it is,but there are guides online or on YouTube.

@falgantil @AaronCockerEV We get a lot of submissions where people claim they can't access the crash footage/glovebox when their car shuts down. I have never heard anyone say it opens automatically.

What's your take on this? Considering that we have the USB drive for the dashcam in the glovebox, it would be great to have some kind of fail safe to get it open?

@falgantil @WhamBaamX There are also numerous articles about this, but I can't find it mentioned in the manual. People have documented it working though.

@AaronCockerEV @WhamBaamX Could you point me to any of it, cause I wasn't aware and I thought I kept myself relatively up-to-date on all things Tesla-related.

@falgantil @WhamBaamX This is already a feature, plenty of information out there about this.

@WhamBaamX Think it’s possible for Tesla to make a software update which makes it so the car automatically opens the glovebox if it detects a crash? I realize it doesn’t cover the scenario where the car loses power immediately. But if it stays on for just a few minutes it’d be ok.

@ArtElectrics Why isn't a circuit breaker enough for this?

@TeslaOwnersUK @Tesla Autopilot, such a game charger from when it was released and maybe FSD one day in the UK. Supercharger network is number 2.

What's the one feature of your @Tesla that you can't live without? 🚗

@raimonick I spotted this too. This is common with all big papers these days, hard to find unbiased EV news, doesn't seem to be a good source in the UK.

Journalism is dead in the UK no more research into stories it’s now let’s print clickbait with zero care on facts

@jtchivers @GunterFehlinger Agreed, although they have 16A rather than 13A though, it's usefully more power. They also have better contact with the round pins so fewer granny leads overheating.

If you want to pick a common sense design, you'd go for a demonstrably safer one, which the Type G plug is. While you're at it, have you had this conversation with the Swiss and Italians? There are only two bad things about UK plugs: 1. The amount of physical space they require. 2. They hurt like a bastard when you tread on them. youtube.com/watch?v=139Q61…

I call to UK 🇬🇧 join the global - European standards for plugs 🔌 Makes sense - it is not a ideological issue - just common sense …

⚡️ There are 234 GW of potential Energy Storage System projects on the National Grid TEC register, many will be batteries🔋 like the ones @TeslaOwnersUK visited today. 📊 Here's the data broken down by year and project status. Data from @NationalGridESO TEC Register.

Some very good news you probably won’t have heard about today, but could be the best thing the govt has done for EV drivers. The Public Charge Point Regs 2023 may not sound exciting, but things are about to get a lot better for EV drivers! Thread 🧵

@raimonick @EVAEOfficial I was there! Didn't spot me in that video though. Model S Plaid was fun to drive 😁

I spy @AaronCockerEV and @EVAEOfficial

What's your earliest solar PV 'start' time ?

What Rowan got wrong. The average petrol or diesel car produces around 47 tonnes of CO2 over its lifetime, including manufacture. Meanwhile, EVs average 20 tonnes less over their lifespan, battery electrochemist, @106Euan, tells @_Reya on @TimesRadio.
